Description

This book deals with a new class of materials, quantum rings.

Innovative recent advances in experimental and theoretical physics of quantum rings are based on the most advanced state-of-the-art fabrication and characterization techniques as well as theoretical methods.

The experimental efforts allow to obtain a new class of semiconductor quantum rings formed by capping self-organized quantum dots grown by molecular beam epitaxy.

Novel optical and magnetic properties of quantum rings are associated with non-trivial topologies at the nanoscale.

An adequate characterization of quantum rings is possible on the basis of modern characterization methods of nanostructures, such as Scanning Tunneling Microscopy.

A high level of complexity is demonstrated to be needed for a dedicated theoretical model to adequately represent the specific features of quantum rings.

The findings presented in this book contribute to develop low-cost high-performance electronic, spintronic, optoelectronic and information processing devices based on quantum rings.
